Elon Musk Says His Child is "Dead" in Shocking Anti-Trans Tirade

 In his latest tirade, Elon Musk hassaid his 20-year-old trans child is “dead” — because she transitioned from male to female.  Musk shared the transphobic remark on yesterday's episode of Jordan Peterson's podcast and claimed he was “tricked” into signing off on gender-affirming care for Vivian Jenna Wilson, who changed her legal name in 2022.

“I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier,” he said Monday. “This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on and we had COVID going on, so there was a lot of confusion. I was told Xavier might commit suicide.  It wasn’t explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs,” Musk continued. “Anyway, so I lost my son, essentially. You know, they call it deadnaming for a reason. The reason it’s called deadnaming is because your son is dead.”

A quick note to jerks like Musk:  puberty blockers are not sterilization drugs. According to the Mayo Clinic, “GnRH analogues don’t cause permanent physical changes. That offers a chance to explore gender identity.”  Twitter used to consider dead naming a form of harassment until Musk bought the platform, when the policy was quietly changed. Musk revived it after a flurry of advertisers left the platform following his many controversial changes.

“So my son Xavier is dead,” he told Peterson. “Killed by the woke mind virus.”  Peterson shared his condolences despite Wilson not actually being dead and idiotically argued she transitioned due to supposed “depression.”  

Peterson, a Canadian psychologist and former university professor who was previously investigated for making transphobic remarks in his lectures, has since stopped teaching and signed a content distribution deal with conservative media outlet The Daily Wire.  The newfound podcaster told Musk that gender transitions have “demolished” children, despite research showing that LGBTQ youths who report high levels of parental rejection being eight times more likely to attempt suicide.  Musk agreed with Peterson and said gender-affirming care is so “evil” that “people that have been promoting this should go to prison.” 

GLAAD warned us all back in December that Musk is a proven “far-right hate-driven extremist” and cited his “extensive anti-LGBTQ posts and anti-trans comments” to warn advertisers about his “worrying” policy decisions at X.  We should have listened.
